And rubber soles on shoes, rubbing against a carpet, are a major source of static electricity. So with the right kind of shoe covering, you can avoid that problem.
Scientists wear lab coats, shoes, goggles, hair cover and a mouth cover and maybe even a stethoscope around their necks.
well rubber is an insulator and does not conduct electricity so this might help prevent anelectricity shock.
